Cisco Prime Infrastructure 3.3 "Collect Configuration Archive whenever configuration is changed" no longer triggering.

As the title says, we have it setup to grab a configuration and archive after a config change, it stopped working for some reason, I am still able to see the switches, grab their configs manually, etc.

hello There,

please check if Event based inventory collection has been enabled in the system settings.
for more details on this, refer to the https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/3-3/admin/guide/bk_CiscoPrimeInfastructure_3_3_AdminGuide/bk_CiscoPrimeInfastructure_3_3_AdminGuide_chapter_0101.html

I figured out the issue after working with Cisco TAC, Prime needs to receiving Syslog messages to determine when a configuration change was made, previously Syslogs were only going to our syslog server, I added the command "logging host x.x.x.x" and it started grabbing configs once a config change was logged via Syslog.
